The Facts:
Following up on the ongoing story. ... The Colts have activated Manning from the physically unable to perform list. That makes him eligible to practice with the rest of the team. The NFL’s only four-time MVP hasn’t practiced the entire preseason while continuing his rehabilitation from May 23 neck surgery. Manning likely will practice with the team today, but won’t play in Thursday night’s preseason finale at Cincinnati.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
“The move is a continuation of the rehab process from offseason neck surgery that Manning underwent,’’ the team said in a release. “He will participate in practice on a limited basis. All of his practice work will be scripted and on a controlled basis. The participation in limited football activity is a standard procedure in the club’s rehab protocol. ..." With Manning’s status for the Sept. 11 regular-season opener uncertain, the Colts signed veteran Kerry Collins to a two-year, $14 million contract last week. He is expected to start against the Houston Texans if Manning isn’t available.
